How is Blind Bogey Scored?
The Blind Bogey flight is for those without established NCGA handicap indexes. It’s basically a flight where luck determines the winner. The way it works is before the tournament three consecutive holes from the front nine (preferably consisting of one par 3, one par 4, and one par 5) and three consecutive holes from the back nine are selected. These selected holes are not revealed to the players in the flight beforehand. The handicap for each player is the amount over par on those six holes multiplied by two. No more than double par of a hole may be permitted on any given hole. Thus if someone had a nine one a par 4, only four strokes would be used on that hole for determining the handicap.
